do i know any devs at mozilla/chrome/IE who can talk to me about perf characteristics around CSS's `insertRule(..)` and `deleteRule(..)`?

In Gecko they'll force us to rerun all cascading + selector matching (slow!), but should coalesce well. (Better if scoped style.)

my goal is to update/replace rules, not create new ones. sounds like there's no way to "tell" gecko that?

Do they have the same selectors? If so, can you manipulate the declaration instead? If not, we have to do all that work.

so that's what you're looking for (was thinking too low level) IE does the same, possibly subtle differences.
